Hi everyone,

   I just started coming to FL(Wildwood) a bit of time in the winter this year.I don't know my way around yet. I also have a 4500 innovis.I'll stay a bit longer next year and will need to find myself a shop.

I did have to learn to do things differently...the humidity gave me a hard time.I am fairly new at ME(aug/sept 08)....and basically 21st century machines(sewing).LOL. I sewed on a 1950 Modernage for 35+ yrs. I need to learn to adjust my ME under any weather conditions.

   Betty, do you have a warranty? That is a shame both you ladies are having problems and there is nowhere close to repair/maintain your machines.You asked about other machines like yours.Twice while I was in the dealer's store where I can always use his sewing room if I have a big project...I had 2 quirky things happen to my machine. He had his repair guy check them on the spot and fix them. The factory had forgot to set my bobbin tension at all and another freak thing(he told me-unusual). I was lucky I happened to be there.

I did just take my machine in to be tweaked after returning from FL. I had thread wrapped around inside at the top..so the machine had gotten a bit testy,but I could tell that.(it was not yet due for its 'check up")

I hope you both make out ok....good luck.

I am in Daytona Beach which isn't too far from Melbourne. I joined the group not too long ago but haven't posted a whole lot except about the adoption. I am still doing my embroidery and all my other part time jobs too. I have been making a lot of ITH projects and selling them to friends, family and customers.  I just finished embroidery on toilet paper which I really didn't think could be done but it worked. I just purchased some inexpensive stuff but there is a difference in quality on the paper so next time - the better stuff (something a little stronger) but what did come out was nice. I did 1 wedding ring ensemble, 1 4th of July and 1 with a set of eyes and "I am watching you" as a JOKE for 1 of my customers.  I have the Ellure Plus with PEDesign 7 and want to eventually start my own business but in these 'trying' times, that won't happen. For now, I will do the smaller things and slowly build from there. I bought my machine from Sewing Garett here in Daytona which is really good and has an excellent repair man. They have always treated me fair and square and I am very appreciative about that. They have all been very courtious and helpful every time I go in there. They are very helpful too when it comes to my PED 7 program and help with digitizing.
